Default Bandit Storage

Hey everyone,

I am storing my bandit for its first winter season. I read up on all the posts that give recommendations on how to winterize a bike (fairly straightforward).

Does anyone have any issues with using the centre stand to keep the wheels off the floor?

Mine does a good job of keeping the back wheel up, but the front needs a bit of support. I keep a 2x4 under the front to keep it off the concrete surface - it seems to be ok - I check the front tire once a week and give it a 1/4 turn of rotation.

Anyone here use the same method? Am I the only one in this forum who experiences a winter season?!?

Cheers,
Bob
